I am building a base to control the orders of my market. In there, I want to "Add a new order" and select the products of the order, while choosing their quantities. Is that possible? Also, I want to calculate the order value with the quantities of each product.

When creating a form, we can limit the options the submitters can select. Is there a way to do a similar set up at the user level?I was thinking maybe, at the interface level, we'd be able to limit the selection of a single select field. But that doesn't seem to be an option. Maybe there's another way to do this? Here's my scenario:I have a dropdown that my users can edit, but I don't want to give them all the options. Maybe I split the options and connect them with formulas?I have an Inventory Table with a drop-down where users can change the status. Some of the statuses are for office use only, so I'd like those options to be filtered out.Thanks in advance for any ideas!

I am using LIST records API to retrieve data from the table.I am needing to get all the records every time. This is acceptable, but no ideal.My client's table has no field that mark when a row is created or edited/updated. Does this of function already exist? If so, How would I grab only the records that were added or changed since the last update? BTW: using this API call:https://api.airtable.com/v0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/$$tablename$$Thanks,Scott

I'm going based on this: https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/create-commentThe authorization is fine, but for some reason within scripting it keeps giving the error that the body isn't parsable. My script is as follows:    //Variables let inputConfig = input.config(); let recordID = inputConfig.recordID; let commentContent = "Hello World"; let url = 'https://api.airtable.com/v0/appksePpf16d6MPdp/tbl4ZEftsWgo84Ldu/' + recordID + '/comments'; console.log(commentContent); //Create the Comment let response = await fetch(url, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer [private]', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }, body: { //For some reason, it's not accepting this body 'text': commentContent } }); console.log(await response.text()); //console.log(await response.json());   I've gotten it to work with this exact same data in Spectator, so I'm really puzzled as to why this doesn't work. 

I have a simple automation set up to send an email when a record is updated. The email includes a link to a Google doc for that particular record. The automation works most of the time, but I've run into situations where the URL for the Google Doc in Airtable gets modified when it comes through in email. For some reason, the underscores in the link get removed. See arrows in attached screenshot. The top URL is the correct one in Airtable, the bottom URL is what comes through in the email. I have other records in Airtable that also have underscores in the google doc URL and those comes through fine. It just seems to be random docs that this is happening with.Any ideas how to fix? 

 How can I make it 2024-08-31 6:30 PM PDT like how the record is in my airtable base? I don't want that T or Z at the end and the seconds and the decimal to be shown either.

I have a base where I have separated expenses into a few different tables. I did that to make it a little clearer for me as it became so cluttered. But now it’s hard to add up the prices and compare. How do I create a dashboard that truly just takes the sum of one column from each table that I have? For ex: I have a table for health insurance, car matinence & lease payments. How would I create a dashboard like summary where I can display the total sum of each of these? So it would look like: I tried linking, rollup and lookup but just can’t figure it out. I have used airspace for a long time, but only for simple data entry. I do not have pro.

Summary People sometimes ask whether it’s possible to use an Airtable form to edit an existing record. Technically the answer is “no” because Airtable forms always create new records. However, a base can be set up so that records created by a form end up affecting records in another “mirror" table. As with my first show-and-tell submission, this was inspired by a solution that I created in another thread. Long story short, the key to that solution was using two tables: one for collecting form data, and another that looks up that form data and fills out a parallel set of fields. Extending that to allow data from subsequent form-generated records to effectively replace older data in the “mirror” table only took a few more steps. Table Setup To build this system, the first table to make will be the [Data Entry] table. This is where the form data will end up. After deleting the default records, change the primary field to the Autonumber type, then set up the remaining fields for the data y

Hi folks. I’m trying to create a way to allow a member of our team to edit a shared view, and I’ve reached a snag. Here’s what I’ve done so far: Created a synced table in a new database using the data from the shared view Added 3 new columns in the new table for adding information to individual records Created an automation in the new table that makes a new row in a google sheet every time a particular column meets a condition All that works. And here’s where I’m snagged: Creating an automation in the original database that updates the changed record whenever a new row is added to the google sheet - BUT: When I use the Record ID from the new synced table, it doesn’t match the Record ID of the original table, so I get a “record doesn’t exist” error When I use one of the other field values from the new google sheet row to identify the record, I get an “Received invalid inputs” error. SO - how do I get the original base to recognize the equivalent record in the synced base? What’s t

I have a CRM database with a table called Companies. These Companies have columns that are linked to different tables called Country and Sector. I would like to create a new table, a Market Matrix of sorts, that automatically rolls up the companies in Country A + Sector B, which would also include notes and different properties on the country/sector in question. What is the best way to accomplish this? Thank you in advance! I'm relatively new to this so any help most appreciated. 

I have a date+time and a duration (days: hours: minutes). I want to add a day:hour:minute duration to the date+time and output a new date+time. Issues I've encountered:1. I can only set a duration field to be day OR hours/minutes/seconds. 2. When attempting to create a formula to add a "Day" duration field to a "Hour" duration field the output is incorrect. For example I have a Day Duration field with "1" and in the Hour duration field I have 00:05. I triedDATEADD({Next Output Days},{Next Output HH:SS},'seconds')   Results in #ERROR!SUM({Next Output Days}+{Next Output HH:SS})   Results in 301?I'd be fine with a result of the total seconds of the day + hours/minutes to use for my final formula but I can't seem to combine the day duration field and the hour/minute duration field into anything useable. I just want to recreate the function of this form under "Add or subtract time from a date" https://www.calculator.

When applying this formula "{Pago a realizar}-{Pago efectuado}"  to the selected fields, as you can see in the 4 file, the result is not 0 but 1. How could I fix this error?

I have an Interface Detail Page that has a list of records.When i open a record it shows me a sort of modal column on the right and the url changes but it doesn't show an ID. Instead it gives me the "detail" parameter with a ver long string like this one "detail=eyJwYWdlSWQiOiJwYWdCeXBjZW9saHVvNXI2aiIsInJvd0lkIjoicmVjcXZseGk5SkJtcHluVXMiLCJzaG93Q29tbWVudHMiOmZhbHNlLCJxdWVyeU9yaWdpbkhpbnQiOm51bGf8".The question is where can i retrieve this long string?I'm working with Make so i want to change this parameter dynamically.I don't know if someone already asked this question, i didn't find any discussion with this problem so i made a new one.

Hello,I have three columns with multiple select options: Lecture (Mandatory), Lecture (Required), and Lecture (Optional). I want to automate the process so that if I add a new value to Lecture (Mandatory), it automatically gets added to the other two columns.For example, if "English Lecture" is added manually to Lecture (Mandatory), then "English Lecture" should also be added to the multiple select options of Lecture (Required) and Lecture (Optional). How can i do that using automation I have make some small automation but it is not workingSet the Trigger:Choose the trigger "When record matches conditions."Set the condition to monitor the "Lecture (Mandatory)" field for updates.       let table = base.getTable("Your Table Name"); let recordId = input.config().recordId; // Fetch the record that triggered the automation let record = await table.selectRecordAsync(recordId); // Retrieve the values from the multiple select fields let certificat

I am building a table that creates a record for monthly billing. The billing happens on the same day each month. I have a Date Paid field and a Next Date Paid formula field, and an automation that triggers after the bill gets paid to create a new record with the Next Date Paid from the old record populating into the Date Paid field of the new record.The problem I'm having is with the DateAdd() function. My current formula is: DATEADD({Date Paid},1,'month')  I thought this would just add one to the month, but it actually just adds 30 days which means that my dates won't match up. I tried adding a field with a static number(MonthDay Paid) and doing something like: DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD({Date Paid},1,'month'),'M/{MonthDay Paid}/YY')  but the dynamic slug breaks the DateTime Format function and returns "8/{8thnt121amy Pami4}/24". I'm trying to automate this as much as possible so that the user doesn't need to really access the data layer much, so a

My team has several hundred user profiles with personal information stored in a database with no API. We keep the personal info there, but we have an SFTP to upload CSVs for information regarding statuses and due dates on various per-profile tasks. Those CSVs land in Airtable, where I'm working to create interfaces that are a lot more user friendly than the database. The really unfortunate thing is, I need a way to track any status or date changes we make in Airtable in order for teammates to manually update that data in the database. At any one time, there will be three "truths": what the old upload previously said, what the teammate has changed it to, and what the new upload says. (I should note, the new upload will probably overwrite the old upload? I'm not sure, I haven't set it up yet as I'm designing the base with fake data.)I can't wrap my head around the best way to do this. I could:1. Have user status/date changes change the last uploaded data, but then compare to the new

Hello,I am trying to set up an automation that sends an email when a record is updated, but only if it is updated via our Mini Extensions add on.We ask people to submit via an Airtable form with information that is TBC, and when the record is created, we can ask people to update anything via Mini Extensions so that they don't have to log in or have an Airtable account.It would be great to know when someone has updated the record through the Mini Extensions form, as currently I can only set up an automation when a record is changed at all - this would be inappropriate as we are updating the records ourselves all the time.The condition options in automations for 'send an email > when a record is updated > if conditions are met' do not have the condition I am hoping for; any advice appreciated.Cheers

Hello. I am trying to send Gmail attachments I receive automatically to an attachments column in Airtable. I finally realized that Airtable wants the URL in array form, which I can do. However, I have not figured out how to use the array functions toArray, map, or add to append the files instead of overwriting and keeping the last one. I have searched and read numerous posts in both the Make and Airtable communities. This is my most recent attempt at make.com.My ultimate goal is to allow students to email their attachments and have them appear in the portal I built with Softr.I feel like I am so close. Thank you.

My workflow is based on priority levels, so I'm trying to create a "Due date" field based on the last time a record was updated. What am I doing wrong is there a better way to create this date? 

I've created on a base a table template with several formulas that I'd like to duplicated for the various projets that I managed but when I try to copy / sync  the table to another base, all my formulas are not transfered and the columns with the Formula Field Type are changed to a Number Field type.Is there an automatic way to copy the formulas or do I have to manually copy/paste them on each new base ? I've left some some images for reference, as you can see the field type is completely different and dont include my formulas.Thanks,

Hi everyone, ready for a super stupid question?? ahhaI'm playing with interfaces and I have a question: " what is the difference between "invite by link" with read only and "share publicly"?  thank you very much! 

In actual databases, I can explicitly define which table holds the linked column, e.g., Table A has a foreign key field to Table B. So, if I look directly at Table B by itself, I wouldn't know that it has a relationship with Table A. But that's okay, because Table B isn't supposed to hold that information itself.But in Airtable, I noticed that when I put a linked field in Table A to Table B, instantly that field also appears in Table B. While that's very useful and helpful to understand the bigger picture of how things are interconnected, now I no longer know which table was the original one that established that relationship.The purpose that I need to know this is to transform an Airtable base into an SQL database schema, so I need to know the "native" fields of each table. Any tips, or anything I missed?

Hi everyone! I'm working on a project to track and monitor my Airtable automations. I want to create a base that will automatically populate with all my existing automations and update every time an automation runs. This way, I can easily view the run history of all my automations in one place, without having to check each one individually. Is it possible to connect automations to a base and track their run count automatically? I've reviewed the documentation but couldn't find a solution. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi. Thanks in advance for any help.I'd like to take a table with dated records in them, then group them by month-Year.How do I take a date format and make a field that will allow me to show the latest records at the top for a particular month? For example:2024 - 2 (all records follow)2024 - 1 (all records follow)2023 - 12 (all records follow)etceteraThen of course as we add newer records at the top, they'll continue.Thanks!
